Abstract
Description
- The subject matter of the present disclosure generally relates to magnetic articles having a protective coating.
- In various applications, such as in turbo machinery used for oil and gas equipment, the magnetic components of motors, generators, and magnetic bearings may be exposed to corrosive environments. For instance, in order for a magnetic bearing to operate in these potentially corrosive environments, the exposed portions of the magnetic bearing must offer corrosion resistance. The stator can typically be protected by encapsulating it with a known corrosion resistant material because the stator is stationary and has a stationary magnetic field. The rotor shaft, however, cannot be encapsulated in such a fashion without negative impact to its performance.
- Accordingly, there exists a need for improved methods for providing a protective coating to a magnetic article.
- In one aspect, an article exhibiting magnetic properties is provided. The article comprises a substrate comprising a first portion of a magnetic material, the magnetic material exhibiting magnetic properties. The article further comprises a transition layer comprising a second portion of the magnetic material and a first portion of a coating material. The transition layer is disposed on at least a portion of the substrate. The article also comprises an outer layer comprising a second portion of the coating material. The outer layer is disposed on at least a portion of the transition layer.
- In another aspect, a method for providing corrosion resistance to an article is provided. The method comprises forming a transition layer on at least a portion of a substrate. The substrate comprises a first portion of a magnetic material exhibiting magnetic properties. The transition layer comprises a second portion of the magnetic material and a first portion of a coating material. The method further comprises applying a coating layer to at least a portion of the transition layer. The coating layer comprises a second portion of the coating material.
- In yet another aspect, an electric machine element is provided. The electric machine element comprises a substrate. The substrate comprises a first portion of a magnetic material, wherein the substrate exhibits magnetic properties. The substrate further comprises a transition layer comprising a second portion of the magnetic material and a first portion of a coating material. The transition layer is disposed on at least a portion of the substrate. The substrate also comprises an outer layer comprising a second portion of the coating material. The outer layer is disposed on at least a portion of the transition layer. The electric machine element further exhibits magnetic properties that are substantially similar to the magnetic properties exhibited by the substrate.
- Additional aspects will be set forth in part in the description that follows, and in part will be obvious from the description, or may be learned by practice of the aspects described below. The advantages described below will be realized and attained by means of the elements and combinations particularly pointed out in the appended claims. It is to be understood that both the foregoing general description and the following detailed description are exemplary and explanatory only and are not restrictive.
